Sunny morning, cloudy at lunchtime and sunny again now.
El, I hope the roadworks/pavement works don’t cause you any problems
Thanks everyone. as much as I enjoy going away, it’s good to be home.
Holibobs are all well and good but as you say, there is no place like home
Correct 
Goodnight and sweet dreams, Moonie and Ros

Awww, bless. I bet she was glad to see you 😁😁😁
Good morning everyone
Another sunny start here today.
Welcome back, Summer
Watched David Lean's version of Great Expectations again. Although Scrooge is my favourite Dickens film, Great Expectations is the best Dickens film I've seen, perfect casting, brilliant photography and use of sound, and excellent adaptation. One point of trivia which you may not know. David Lean was influenced by a srage adaptaton he'd seen back in 1939. The stage adaptation was by Alec Guinness. He played the part of Herbert Pocket and Martita Hunt played Miss Haversham which is why David Lean chose them for the same roles in his film.
I hope everyone has a good day
Good morning everyone, what a gorgeous morning it is too. Welcome back Summer, I know Bramble will be delighted to have you back home again. There's nothing like your own bed.
Enjoy your day everyone
Good morning everyone
Weather is dry and cloudy.
Welcome home, Summer. I’m sure you and Bramble are very happy to be reunited.
Heading out to Morrisons. Mr Yogi is coming so there will be cakes, Moonie
El, Scrooge is also my favourite Dickens’ film (and A Christmas Carol is my joint favourite Dickens’ book, along with David Copperfield).
Have a good day, all.

Fankoo Yogi
Moonie, it's rather warm here too
Yogi, I like the book, David Copperfield as well. The 1935 film version is watchable though somwhat Americanised and W C Fields as Micawber is, frankly, out of place.
I see that the pavement work end date has been changed to next Friday. The workmen have started putting on the top surface on my side from the other end. So it may be that my section doesn't get started until next week.

The top temperature here today is supposed to be 19 degrees El. I believe it’s already hotter than that
I wonder if your saga will run as long as Coronation Street?

It's 22.5 degrees here
If the saga is as long as Coronation Street, by the time they've finished, it will be time to start again, a bit like the painting of the Forth Bridge used to be
Good afternoon hot and sunny here, the flip flops are back out!
How are you all?

Sweet dreams everyone I’ve spent the evening helping friends assemble flat pack furniture, which I really enjoy. So we made a night of it and had an Indian takeaway too
Good morning everyone
Sunny here at present, showers expected this afternoon.
Annual boiler service later this morning. I warned them on Monday about the pavement work but it looks as if they won't start on my section until next week. I had mentioned to them about parking on the shared drive. First thing this morning I realised that my neighbour has problems with his newish car - there's an engine malfunction. So he's moved it from the drive on to his forecourt.
Summer, I haven't had an Indian takeaway since the time I got a chicken tikka masala - the sauce was purple
I hope everyone has a good day
Good morning all.
It’s dry and bright so hubby and I are heading into the garden. He’ll be mowing and I’ll be sweeping up.
El, I’m not surprised that purple sauce put you off Indian takeaways.
Summer, well done on assembling the flat pack furniture.
Have a good day, everyone

That seems to me like a perfectly good idea
Don't sweep too hard 😉

I just hope it's not like Brookside with a body under the pavement (patio in Brookside rather than pavement)
Not guilty, Milord
Don’t even think that El
I would find you not guilty

Good noon sunny here, I love it
El, I hope all goes smoothly with the boiler service
purple?! Curry should definitely not be purple, no wonder it put you off. I’m having a home cooked Thai curry tonight
Thanks Summer Boiler service done and no problems
I hope you enjoy your Thai curry tonight
It's obvious that they used too much food colouring with that tikka masala - it was years ago so it's quite possible that the colouring was one of those which later were banned, not that I came to any harm.

I know someone whose first name is Isis (pronounced eye-sis). That name had been popular and was from the Egyptian goddess of that name. It's also an alternative name for the river Thames, particularly where if flows through Oxford (and is used by rowers there). Not surprisingly in recent years, that name is much less popular and some people with that name have changed theirs.
